SwiftKey, arguably one of the most popular third-party keyboard applications on Android, received a crucial software update with a myriad of bug fixes.

The SwiftKey update change log is rather lengthy. There’s improved typing performance, transitions, keyboard loading time, Flow performance, which will help when you’re doing one-hed gesture typing. The app also fixes a bug that made the bottom row of the keyboard disappear on some devices, as well as a bug that made the background disappear in some themes another that caused some to constantly crash.

That’s a pretty lengthy list of bugs, but SwiftKey promises to make performance its “#1 priority…we continue to work on lag issues affecting some users on some devices to make sure the keyboard is as snappy as you need.”

l those bug fixes are a bit of a bummer, but there’s some good news, too. This latest update also brings forth a few new themes for you to choose from, as well as a summer sale on several existing themes. Head to the SwiftKey store to check out the new themes what’s on sale, or head to the ay Store for the app update.
